With this video, you’ll learn Photoshop techniques to edit light that heighten the drama of your portraits

Let’s not beat a dead horse — you, me, and every single photographer we know loves golden hour light. It’s no secret. It’s magical. Beautiful. The backdrop of every romantic movie you’ve ever seen. But the question is, are you doing everything you can in Photoshop to amplify its potential? Are you using the corrects ways to edit light?

Yes, Photoshop can be intimidating. It’s hard enough to get your subject posed correctly. Shot perfectly. While doing your best to get everything right in camera. Then, like a bully, here comes Photoshop. Oh, no!

Again, on the field, this light can be a pain in the butt to handle. The powerful tones, colors, and shadows give you a lot to play with — and a lot to mess up. Wouldn’t you want Photoshop to help you?

One thing that always catches my eye is the redder cast everything takes. Which can be great. But sometimes this warmer color temperature can look unnatural when you start to really look at a portrait.

Greens can get weird. Almost neon. A field of grass can look alien.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”375149″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row font_color=”#000000″ css=”.vc_custom_1445201601404{background-color: #f7f7f9 !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” background_style=”normal”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1472211480858{padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 2% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}”]So how faithful do you want your colors to look? Sure, it might be nitpicky to think about it. But if you care about details, then it’s something you can’t miss. Here’s the thing, though: correcting, or adjusting, colors is only one part of editing golden hour portraits.

If you want to blur the sky instead, how would you do that? These are among the many specific tasks that usually come up when working in golden hour light.
